Downloaded Aquile Reader and am able to open all epubs.
Did a reinstall of ADE 4.5, authorized it with username & password and, using my daughter's NYPL account, borrowed and downloaded a book. ADE opened, showing the book cover and then froze. I had to use task manager to close the program. When I restarted ADE no book showed. Tried adding the book to old ver (3.0) but it said book was already in library.
I could add the new book to Calibre but could not open it in viewer OR epub editor. Drm protected (@Sirtel had mentioned that if a book had DRM protection, the editor would not open it so my older book must not have DRM protection.).
I believe this is a Win11 problem.
